Radio Kollasuyo FM

This is one of the quieter entries in Bolivia's listing, at 34 of 39. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

Radio Kollasuyo FM has a zero in the directory's open count. It is the least interesting number on this page and the one most likely to be misread, so it is worth being plain: it measures traffic through radio-browser, not audience.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

Radio Kollasuyo FM streams at 96 kbps, under Bolivia's median of 128 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

Its audio comes straight from azura2.bitstreaming.net:8000, an address unique to this entry in Bolivia's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
